Answer:

385 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

7 red balls

10 white balls

In how many ways can 4 balls be selected if there are more than 2 red balls.

Selecting 4 balls which must contain more than 2 red balls, will be 3 red balls and 1 white ball to make it 4 in total, or all the 4 balls selected will red balls.

= 3 red balls and 1 white ball OR 4 red balls

= 7C₃ x 10C₁ + 7C₄

$= \frac{7!}{4!3!} *\frac{10!}{9!1!} \ \ + \ \frac{7!}{3!4!} \\\\= (35*10) \ + \ 35\\\\= 350 \ + 35\\\\= 385 \ ways$

Therefore, there are 385 ways of selecting 4 balls, if there are more than 2 red balls.

Write an equation of the line that goes through the point (6, 12) and has a slope of 2 3 .

Degger [83]

Answer:

3y = 2x + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is as follows;

Write an equation of the line that goes through the point (6, 12) and has a slope of 2/3

Solution

Here, we have a point and a slope, and we want to write the equation of the line

The method we shall use here is the point slope method

Mathematically, that will be;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

(x1,y1) = (6,12)

m = 2/3

y-12 = 2/3(x-6)

3(y-12) = 2(x-6)

3y-36 = 2x - 12

3y = 2x -12 + 36

3y = 2x + 24

Apply the method of undetermined coefficients to find a particular solution to the following system.wing system.

jarptica [38.1K]

$y''-y'+y=\sin x$

The corresponding homogeneous ODE has characteristic equation $r^2-r+1=0$ with roots at $r=\dfrac{1\pm\sqrt3}2$ , thus admitting the characteristic solution

$y_c=C_1e^x\cos\dfrac{\sqrt3}2x+C_2e^x\sin\dfrac{\sqrt3}2x$

For the particular solution, assume one of the form

$y_p=a\sin x+b\cos x$

${y_p}'=a\cos x-b\sin x$

${y_p}''=-a\sin x-b\cos x$

Substituting into the ODE gives

$(-a\sin x-b\cos x)-(a\cos x-b\sin x)+(a\sin x+b\cos x)=\sin x$

$-b\cos x+a\sin x=\sin x$

$\implies a=1,b=0$

Then the general solution to this ODE is

$\boxed{y(x)=C_1e^x\cos\dfrac{\sqrt3}2x+C_2e^x\sin\dfrac{\sqrt3}2x+\sin x}$

$y''-3y'+2y=e^x\sin x$

$\implies r^2-3r+2=(r-1)(r-2)=0\implies r=1,r=2$

$\implies y_c=C_1e^x+C_2e^{2x}$

Assume a solution of the form

$y_p=e^x(a\sin x+b\cos x)$

${y_p}'=e^x((a+b)\cos x+(a-b)\sin x)$

${y_p}''=2e^x(a\cos x-b\sin x)$

Substituting into the ODE gives

$2e^x(a\cos x-b\sin x)-3e^x((a+b)\cos x+(a-b)\sin x)+2e^x(a\sin x+b\cos x)=e^x\sin x$

$-e^x((a+b)\cos x+(a-b)\sin x)=e^x\sin x$

$\implies\begin{cases}-a-b=0\\-a+b=1\end{cases}\implies a=-\dfrac12,b=\dfrac12$

so the solution is

$\boxed{y(x)=C_1e^x+C_2e^{2x}-\dfrac{e^x}2(\sin x-\cos x)}$

$y''+y=x\cos(2x)$

$r^2+1=0\implies r=\pm i$

$\implies y_c=C_1\cos x+C_2\sin x$

Assume a solution of the form

$y_p=(ax+b)\cos(2x)+(cx+d)\sin(2x)$

${y_p}''=-4(ax+b-c)\cos(2x)-4(cx+a+d)\sin(2x)$

Substituting into the ODE gives

$(-4(ax+b-c)\cos(2x)-4(cx+a+d)\sin(2x))+((ax+b)\cos(2x)+(cx+d)\sin(2x))=x\cos(2x)$

$-(3ax+3b-4c)\cos(2x)-(3cx+3d+4a)\sin(2x)=x\cos(2x)$

$\implies\begin{cases}-3a=1\\-3b+4c=0\\-3c=0\\-4a-3d=0\end{cases}\implies a=-\dfrac13,b=c=0,d=\dfrac49$

so the solution is

$\boxed{y(x)=C_1\cos x+C_2\sin x-\dfrac13x\cos(2x)+\dfrac49\sin(2x)}$
